From the perspective of a single, above average lifestyle = own 2 ocr condos, 2-3 holidays a year (fly in business class), regular restaurant meals etc.
Of course, we can still afford an average lifestyle (hdb, hawker meals regularly, 2-3 holidays a year in economy class etc)
So it's not so much that we are paid poorly compared to older generation of Drs, just that inflation has eroded into our QOL.

Technically wage growth should track inflation.
